Board sale/swap @ Beach House

I planed to go and make a day out of it with the wife and kids but She came down with the stomach bug and I had to hang around the house and take care of the kids . I saw the pics from the Christian Surfers of Manasquan's Facebook page . It really looked like a blast this year. Dont they do 2 a year?? I knwo the Tuckerton Seaport is doing one
May 7th when they show Bruce Brown's Editor uncut version of The Endless Summer

 

I picked up a longboard.. Funny not even from the swap but in the store...Im not a logger guy but figured its a pretty versitile stick. I can paddle around and work out when its flat.. and just cruise it in 2 ft clean peelers. Im stoked!

 

what did u get?

 

A 9'4 Ricky Carrol.. I know nothing about it but it rips enough for me! At a good price too.

 

I think the used Stick list had a 8'4" Skip Frye does anyone see it or know the asking price?

 

I don't remember seeing it although there were a ton of boards. I can get in touch with the seller if you want me too and see if he still has it. Send me a PM if your interested.

 

It was definitely a good time, some good deals to be had too. I sold a few things and was real tempted to grab a longboard but had to resist the temptation, not really any good noseriders in my size/price range anyway.

 

I drove past on my way back from my surf but i was beat

Damn there was some good deals, huh? shoulda grabbed myself a log

 

Lots of good deals on all price ranges and sizes. Heres a link to some pics from me and some other guys from another forum.

Board Swap deals?

Were there many decent modern longboards in the $300-$400 range? Seems like all the pre-Swap posts here and on Longboard.net were referencing prices starting at $600-$800 or more. I understand that rare vintage boards in mint condition are a separate category, though. Maybe there were some good prices on fins or board bags if you got there early enough (and weren't pre-sold on LB.net), I suppose.

 

I only saw one for $400 that was newer and in good shape. I picked one up from inside the shop for 420 .. its a newer one.

 

There were a few in the $300-$400 range, most had a few dings that needed repaired but were in decent shape. I did see a nice 9'1" with a slight buckle that had been repaired really well go for $200 which I think was a good deal. I was hoping for some retro fishes but there was only one there, the rest were either longboards, vintage single fins or shortboards.

 

They had a bunch of short boards.. for good prices.. ill deff pick up a couple next time.

 

from the pics I seen there were a cpl Cooperfish's ,Bings , and Greg Noll "Da'Kat" model, tons of short boards new and vintage.

Defianlty wish I could have gone , Oh well next time I guess

 

Yeah that red and yellow Walden.. I wanted it! But just passed it on .. Shoulda took it.
